So my FI and I were on our way to his house this past weekend and we began discussing baby names again. We are no where near having a baby as financial it is not possible right now but I still love thinking about naming our kids etc. Id really like opinion as well as ideas on better middle names

Here is our current list *-favorites

Girls:

Nora Grace*
Nora Ann

Addy Elisabeth (does that sound weird just with Addy as a fn instead of a nn for something longer)

Allison Faith
Allison Elisabeth
Allison Kate*

Lara Kathleen

Anna Felicity
Anna Faith

Meredith Claire*

Boys:

Caleb William
Caleb Scott
Caleb Philip
Caleb Nathaniel

Cole Patrick
Cole Alexander

Benjamin Luke

Carter James

Nolan Riley

Owen Patrick
Owen Scott

Adelaide could be a longer name for Addy, if that bothers you.

I love the names Nora Grace and Meredith Claire.

I'm not a big fan of the name Meredith, but paired with Claire makes it sound so good!

Addy does sound pretty odd, but that's just my opinion. :)

How about Nora Belle? That would be so beautiful!

Nolan Riley sounds too much like Nolan Ryan to me. haha
I don't like Caleb William by itself but I feel like with a last name it would be very nice.
Alison Elisabeth is too many syllables I think.
I love the name Felicity but I'm not sure about as a middle name.
Nora Ann -- the ending with an "a" and starting with an "a"...eh...
Owen Patrick is very nice.
I also love Meredith Claire. I think that one is my favorite of the girls' names.

i love nora grace, but i really prefer norah with the h at the end. i dont like allison, its just too dated for me, there were a ton of allisons everywhere when i was growing up. i also love elisabeth with an s! adore it! anna is cute, and felicity sounds nice with it. i also like meredith claire, absolutely sweet. my cousins name is meredith (shes 30something now) and we have always just called her mere (rhymes with care). cole is an alright name, and owen patrick is nice, but its becoming trendy. thats my fathers and my brothers middle name, its sweet. i dont like nolan riley. riley is a girls name to me.

i really like most of those! nora grace is beautiful, as well as anna felicity. i'm not a huge fan of the combinations with the name allison, but that seems like a difficult name to find a mn for. i really like caleb nathaniel, both cole combinations and nolan riley. also, i think caleb alexander could be a good pairing.

My favourites from your list:

Nora Grace
Anna Felicity
Benjamin Luke

Caleb Scott is ok too. Anna is one of my favourite girl's names.

They're all lovely names, except that I personally don't like the name Owen. I'm not sure why, it just belongs in this group of names that I don't like the sound of...usually those names include a "w" or "y" sound. I have nothing against it as a name.

I prefer Ann with an E... & I love Owen if my partners brothers girlfriend didnt name her child that I would have used it. I dont like Caleb. Benjamin is cute always will be. I dont really like any of your girl names though.

Anna Felicity most defiently. I love that.. but i think Felicity is actually too pretty for a second name, i'd use Felicity Anna :-)

I think Addy is too short to be a first name. Its too cutesy sounding and doesn't seem like it'd age well. I like Meredith and Lara a lot. I love Caleb and Carter!
